Frequently asked questions

What is cloud backup and how does it work?

Cloud backup involves securely storing copies of your data on remote servers maintained by cloud service providers. This data is automatically backed up from your devices and systems to the cloud, where it is encrypted and stored safely. In the event of data loss, corruption, or hardware failure, you can quickly restore your data from the cloud, ensuring business continuity.

Why should my business use cloud backup rather than on-premises solutions?

Cloud backup offers several advantages over on-premises solutions, including off-site storage for added security against physical disasters, such as fires or floods. It also provides scalability, allowing you to easily adjust your storage needs as your business grows. Additionally, cloud backup typically includes automated processes and remote access, simplifying data management and recovery.

How secure is my data in the cloud?

Cloud backup providers implement robust security measures to protect your data. This typically includes encryption both during transmission and while at rest, secure access controls, and regular security audits. It’s important to choose a reputable provider that complies with industry standards and regulations to ensure your data is well protected.

How often should I back up my data to the cloud?

The frequency of your cloud backups should align with your business needs and data volatility. For critical data, daily or even real-time backups may be necessary. For less critical information, weekly or monthly backups might suffice. Many cloud backup solutions offer automated scheduling to ensure your data is consistently backed up without manual intervention.

What are the benefits of using cloud backup?

The benefits of cloud backups include secure offsite storage, automated backup scheduling, easy access from any location, and scalable solutions. Cloud backup also provides peace of mind by protecting your data from local disasters and hardware failures.

Can cloud backup solutions protect against ransomware attacks?

Yes, many backup solutions include features to protect against ransomware attacks. This often involves regular scans for malware, versioning to keep historical backups, and immutable backups that cannot be altered or deleted. However, it’s also essential to implement a comprehensive security strategy that includes antivirus software and employee training.

Can I back up both physical devices and cloud-based applications?

Yes, modern cloud backup solutions can handle backups for both physical devices, such as computers and servers, as well as cloud-based applications like M365, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. This comprehensive approach ensures all your data, whether stored on-premises or in the cloud, is protected and recoverable.

What is the backup 3-2-1 strategy?

The 3-2-1 backup strategy is a widely recommended approach to ensure data protection. It involves:

  1. Three Copies of Data: Maintain three copies of your data—one primary copy and two backups.
  2. Two Different Media: Store the backups on two different types of media, such as an external hard drive and cloud storage.
  3. One Offsite Backup: Keep one backup offsite to protect against local disasters, such as fire or theft.

This strategy helps safeguard against data loss by diversifying storage locations and types.

Can I access my cloud backups from anywhere?

Yes, cloud backup services enable you to access your data from any location with an internet connection. This flexibility allows you to retrieve and restore your files quickly, whether you’re in the office or traveling.

How much cloud storage space do I need for backups?

The amount of cloud storage space you need depends on the volume of data you want to back up. Consider factors such as the size of your files, the frequency of backups, and retention policies. Most cloud backup providers offer scalable storage options to accommodate your needs.

Can I use cloud backup for both personal and business data?

Yes, cloud backup services can be used for both personal and business data. There are solutions tailored to individual users as well as enterprise-level solutions designed for business needs, offering scalable and flexible options for different data protection requirements.

What is incremental backup and how does it work?

Incremental backup is a method where only the changes made since the last backup are saved. This approach reduces the amount of data transferred and stored, making backups faster and more efficient. It works by comparing the current state of data with the last backup to identify and back up only new or modified files.

What is the difference between a full backup and an incremental backup?

A full backup involves copying all selected data, creating a complete replica of your files. In contrast, an incremental backup only saves changes made since the last backup. While full backups provide a comprehensive snapshot, incremental backups are more storage-efficient and faster.

How do cloud backups handle large data volumes?

Our backup solutions are designed to handle large data volumes by offering scalable storage options. They may use features like data compression and deduplication to manage large backups efficiently, ensuring that storage and bandwidth are optimised.

Can I customise backup schedules and retention policies?

Yes, our backup services allow you to customise backup schedules and retention policies. This flexibility lets you set backup frequencies, retention periods, and specific times for backups based on your business needs and data protection requirements.
